    Sailing with Jerome is worth your time!

    Shannon_T, Mar 2026
    We had a wonderful afternoon with Jerome. It was a special treat to turn off the motor and use the sails! We all loved the food and drink and the opportunity to swim. Jerome tailored our experience to our group. We enjoyed talking with him about his travels and experiences. Thank you for a memorable time!

    Amazing Birthday Tour with Captain Jerome!

    Charles_F, Nov 2025
    We had an awesome time celebrating my friend’s 40th birthday aboard the Velas do Rio catamaran. Captain Jerome and his two crewmates were outstanding, friendly, professional, and full of great energy. They made sure everything ran smoothly and helped create a fun, relaxed vibe from start to finish. With 11 of us onboard, we had plenty of space to lounge, dance, and take in the stunning views of Rio’s coastline. The boat size was just right, the music was perfect, and the crew even helped prepare a nice array of food & drinks for us. It was the highlight of our trip, and I highly recommend for any celebration or just a day out on the water!
